This is what Happen 8 Dec 06---->"Ok first off I think im going to need counseling, and dont be mislead by my title. But I was out riding today and decided to go and talk to my dealer about the Clear Bra. The district manager was there and told me that my car was in and was about to go to the shop to put in the wood grain extras and ipod and things and to get it programmed. So I said can I see it , and she said yes of course, so when I went to look at the car it was so nice (Olivian Green by the way ) and all the options were there except for the STEPTRONIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Long story short they have to build me another car and the BMW Plant in MUNIC is closed for the Holidays until Jan 4th. So I can't get my car until then. But as a incentive they are putting in the "Illuminated BMW Door Seals"for free. So its not so bad right "
So since theyare going to remake it I'm just curious if I should get the HUD option? But is it really worth it or is it just for the lazy person who doesnt want to glance down at the dashboard when they are driving? And how many people really use theres? Because cant it be a deterent on the bottom of the screen that keeps you looking down? I dont know but I have to know by today what im gonna do so please give me some of your thoughts. Thanks :please: |
it just a new hitec toy that is not going to be used that many times :whistle:
I think keeping your eye on the road if you are doing over a ton (100) |
A strange thing about HUD.
a) Those that have it can't imagine being without it. b) Those that don't have it wonder what all the fuss is about. IMHO this poll therefore would've been better titled "Do you have HUD?" because you're gonna get EXACTLY the same answers. ABC |

Agree with ABC and we have had lots of HUD discussion threads. Surprised that pinguhk did not dig them all up :whistle:
HUD adds to the driving experience. But I got it because I were trifocals and normal dash is hard to adjust eyes to. HUD is perfect for me. |

I have it in my C6 Corvette. I thought it would be gimicky when I picked out the car but found myself relying on it - especially when its coupled with navigation directions etc. I would say that if you get it as an option, it will be something that you soon depend on...never have it and you probably wont miss it.
I have to ask though; lighted door sills are pretty expensive themselves. Why not get the HUD as a "sorry for our screw up" concession? :think: While you can always add these door plates at a later date, the HUD is a very expensive and time consuming MOD if you decide on it later (new windscreen, projector, installation reprogramming etc...). If you were wondering how the driving experience is changed with HUD, lighted door sills DEFINATELY beg that same question! |
It worth $1000 if it also display infrared images on screen. If it cannot show infrared images, it should comes with the Navigation system. That's my thoughts... and why I didn't get it.
|
If you have Nav, it is a very nice companion, its much easier to see the turning dierctions in front of you, rather than looking down and to the side, especially at night in poor weather. If your leasing the difference in payment is very minimal...
|
I'll agree with the other posts. It should really be included with NAV. If you have NAV get the HUD. If I didn't have NAV I would be unhappy paying $1000 for the HUD.
